A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO MAGNETIC THERAPY
Magnetic therapy is a non-chemical non-invasive therapy, used for the relief of pain, treatment of sport injuries and alleviation of a multitude of ailments. It is said to work along the bodies' meridians i.e. energy channels inducing and ionizing blood flow thus restoring the bodies' natural balance in order to promote the natural healing process of the body.
It has been said to ease many ailments such as: Arthritis, Carpal Tunnel, Poor Circulation, Rheumatism, Tennis Elbow, Fibro Myalgia, Tendonitis,and Sciatica. Additionally, magnetic energy has been said to have a beneficial effect on lymph flow, hormone production, nerves and muscles. Magnetic Therapy is intended to complement rather than replace conventional medicine.
Magnetic therapy products should not be used by people who have pacemakers, defibrillators or hearing aid implants fitted, and should not be used if pregnant.
MAGNETISM AND BLOOD
Your blood is magnetic, as 4% of it is iron, carried in the haemoglobin and red corpuscles. When you apply a magnet, it produces a whirlpool effect in your blood. This improves the circulation of highly oxygenated blood and helps dislodge toxins and clear out your arteries. Regeneration of damaged tissue is enhanced by the increased blood circulation. A magnet can increase blood flow by up to 300% in five minutes. If you don't have good blood flow through your muscles acidity builds up. That's why you feel pains and aches. A north pole magnet will neutralise the acidity, giving you extra mobility in that area. The improved circulation will also make your extremities feel warmer. Magnets also alter the molecular structure of the blood. It becomes thinner, which means it can access awkward areas like bones, tendons, cartilage and capillaries.
Sleep is very important for so many reasons and the energy from the magnets calm down the circadian rhythm of the brain waves and help to induce a delta state of sleep. So first of all, it can enable you to feel well rested on only a few hours sleep. Secondly the magnets will encourage a much greater degree of blood flow and oxygen to the body. When you have up to 300% more highly oxygenated blood flow in an area it penetrates every tissue, cell and muscle, which means they all work more efficiently also. The magnets will give the body the energy to heal itself without depleting its own energy resources.
It is recommended that people who use magnetic products drink ample amounts of water.
MAGNETIC JEWELLERY
Did you know that there is a strange mystical force that actually surrounds planet Earth, that no-one can fully explain, that can be used to move objects remotely, that Cleopatra utilized to keep her beauty intact, that many today believe helps and enables the human body to fight aging and helps renewal. Chinese call it Chi, the Indians know it as Prana. Whatever you call it, this amazing energy is a basic force of life it pulses throughout the galaxies and is found everywhere in nature.
The ancient Egyptians were also acquainted with the power of magnets. Legend has it that Cleopatra slept with a magnetic stone on her forehead to preserve her youthful appearance. The ancient Hindus in India believed that a dying person should rest with their body aligned north to south (their head pointing north) to relieve their pain and ease their departure from this life. Even Aristotle spoke about using magnets as a healing therapy, so you can see magnets have a very long and worldwide pedigree. Like so much ancient wisdom the modern world deemed it hocus-pocus but now like Aromatherapy and other 'New-Age' remedies it is being taken serious.
HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Not everyone agrees but here is one of the more popular theories: The Earth possesses a natural energy field, which we require to function normally. With a modern lifestyle we are limiting the amound of natural magnetic energy that the body absorbs and polluting our magnetic field with modern devices such as mobile phones etc. This natural energy balances the blood and helps to release endorphins, which are our body's natural painkillers into the blood stream.
